Do any of you guys know of a good aircraft museum I could take my
family to here in California?


There are a lot of musuems in north-central California. The USAF
has museums at Beale (Merryville), Travis (just upstream from SFO),
and McClellen (Sacramento). The former Castle AFB also has a large
musuem. There are private museums at the Oakland airport, the Hiller
Musuem across the bay off of highway 101, and a musuem in Santa Rosa.

There was once a musuem of air navigation at Mather in Sacramento.
That base has closed, so I have no idea what happened to the musuem
aircraft and exhibits. The musuem itself was very nicely done.
Anyone know what happened to the former Mather AFB musuem?

I live up north and the closest thing I've ever been to is the local
AB Museum which is sadly moving since the base was closed years ago.


Which base is that?
